    Some WIP sneak peaks from ED

    I feel really bad, the grass in the simulator is good for nothing, just to annoy.



     

    - First, the grass always very low FPS.

    - Second, the grass is just drawn to a few meters from us, this means that only when we are about 10 meters or less above the ground, we see the grass, and a maximum distance of about 10 or 20 meters. Also do not see the optical systems.

     

    If the grass in Armed Assault, is more annoying than useful, Imagine in air simulator, which fly so high and so fast that we give a shit, but still be lower FPS.

    I am very unhappy with this, and not alone, and Rof and Bob also announced that it would.

     

    Relax man just disable the grass. It looks awesome to me. More realistic.

    You lot are really nice. I have spoken with the Fighter Collection of ED but I'm also a very busy chap and need to feed the kids. One step at a time eh. I've been approached directly on this site about tactics but sadly don't have the time to to reply to individuals at the moment. I am writing all of the tactics down in my new book 'Hellfire'. It even goes into Heli v Heli tactics.

     

    I'm charitable with all profits from my books sold on the site below going to the association. A fantastic bunch of old-timers. http://www.656squadron.org and look for the shop; or directly: http://www.656squadron.org/Shop/mini01Cart/Book%20review.htm

    Tips for controlling Shkval

    in DCS: Ka-50 Black Shark

    Posted

    I use keyboard directional arrows for SHKVAL movement and a button on the Saitek Evo Force for lock. The problem with this is that I don't have collective when I try to lock but most of the time I am in hover. I couldnt find any other way to do it as the hat on my stick is not precise.

     

    Now that i built a new pc i will try the hat on the stick as i dont get any slow downs when i operate SHKVAL and it may work.

    Transmission Failure

    in DCS: Ka-50 Black Shark

    Posted

    I have no idea what the problem is. Everytime my choppers drop off the ground team I start to head back and Bingo everytime I start losing power with a transmission overheat or failure. What am I missing? I was in an Attack Helicopter Troop in the service and we rarely had transmission issues, Can someone give some insight into this issue? I have not made it back yet let alone complete the mission.:helpsmilie:

    Are you landing from hover?

    GIVE ME THIS TERRAIN........

    You need: #1. FS9, or FSX, FSX Acceleration is preferable for better resolution and gfx.

    #2. A mid-high range computer, tileproxy works well with quad cores, but my Duo core seems to work fine....of course its OC'd to 4.04ghz! you can run it with a pentium 4, just not at higher res's.

    #3 A large harddrive... it would probably help to have tileproxy in a partition or spare harddrive...

    #4 Download Tileproxy Beta 8 and follow instructions here: http://www.edtruthan.com/tileproxy/tutorial/

     

    NOTE: This is a tricky program to get working, and I fluked out whereas it simply worked on my machine... Some people have had problems getting this to run on Vista64bit even when following all instructions.

     

    I have Vista64bit, but they manage to make it work? I am seriously considering to get FSX Acceleration just for this terrain. Whats the difference between FSX and FSX acceleration? Thanks crazysundog.
